Intro:

Wales captain Sam Warburton talked at the Six Nations launch at the Hurlingham Club in London on Wednesday.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Sam Warburton, Wales captain:

"Yeah, you know, we were only in for 24-48 hours before we came up to do this launch, but I think we're fortunate that everybody has come in - touch wood - injury free. There might be some guys who haven't played for the last couple of weeks, but going into next week I like to think that the majority of the squad will be available for selection, which, for us, is quite a nice situation to be in. There's normally some injury problems with some key players but this year's a little bit different, so I hope we can take advantage of that situation."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Sam Warburton, Wales captain:

"I mean, with England, I think they could have a couple of injuries, but with the strength in depth they've got, for example Tom Wood, who I think is a brilliant player, to be able to have the potential to call up on someone like Tom Croft, for example, a two-time British Lion, James Haskell could play there, and he played exceptionally well for Wasps the other day. I think the options they've got, they're pretty lucky that they've got a lot of strength in depth, and those guys they can call upon have got plenty of caps. Both of those (Croft and Haskell) are probably 50 caps or more. So yeah, I think England have fortunately got a lot of strength in depth. Whichever England side we play, similar to like a New Zealand team, I don't think you're ever going to face a weak English team."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Sam Warburton, Wales captain:

(on Friday night matches)

"I think the Friday night games, I mean for a player like myself in the Pro12, we play on Friday nights quite a lot, so I'm quite used to playing, you know, late kick-offs and things. But, being night-time as well, during the winter, it'll be dark, if the roof is closed it can make it pitch black in the stadium and for entertainment for the crowd as well, with the fireworks and lights, it's actually a really good show as well. They do put on a really good show at Six Nations time and we played France on a Friday night once, and as players you don't see that, obviously you're in the changing rooms and you come out and play. But speaking to my family and friends and fans that went to that game, they said the entertainment was brilliant, so I'm hoping that the game can match the entertainment. I'm sure it'll be a great spectacle all round."
